“If you do not know who All Else Fails is yet, kick yourself in the ass. Go ahead. I’ll wait. Okay, I feel better, how about you?

The Edmonton quartet has created a unique mix of punk, metal and rock, which defies labels, and who the fuck needs labels anyway. The group’s latest effort, The Oracle: What Was, Is And Could Have Been was one of 2011′s best offerings, and turned many a head in the metal community.”
—Metalholic Magazine

“What is apparent on this third release is not only the sheer creativity of the group, but also its stone cold knack for writing songs designed to permanently embed in the gray matter…There is just something about the band’s songwriting approach; it seems so darn natural and effortless. On “The Oracle” nothing ever sounds forced, formulaic, or identifiable as anyone but ALL ELSE FAILS. Don’t let this one slip past your radar. ”

“Edmonton, Alberta’s Stone Iris hit the kathedral stage at 1:00am. Their more Psychedelic /Funk
sound capped off the evening of unparalleled talent like nothing I had ever seen before.” – Portal Magazine

“Stone Iris was a great energy band. They had strong melodies and harmonies with a nostalgic
70’s feel. Tight and tasty, these guys are on a path to bigger things.” – Fazer Magazine

“Stone Iris is a promising rock band from Edmonton, Canada. The 3 track EP “Silhouettes” gives the listener a taste of rocknroll, blues and even reggae.” – Melodic.net

AL "THE YETI" BONES

Last night I was laying in bed, my mind racing like Nascar, thinking truly about everything under the sun. When going to bed, I usually have peace and quiet with enough time to reflect on what got done today, how I did things yesterday, and what needs to be tackled tomorrow. It’s also why I get up so early everyday too.
